Look for Snowed in with the Cowboy, the exciting new novel from Maisey Yates, available from September 2018. Christmastime in Gold Valley, Oregon, means hot chocolate, snowy nights and one very sexy cowboy holiday surprise… There’s only one thing Chloe Nolan wants for Christmas this year—and he wears a cowboy hat and is completely off-limits. When her mom married into the Reid family, Chloe found her calling, working with horses on the ranch. How could she risk that newfound stability by revealing her crush on her stepbrother, Tanner? But when Chloe and Tanner get snowed in on their way to a family gathering, it’s just the chance to extinguish the flame that’s been burning for too long. One night. One wish. One bed… She’s the woman Tanner’s always wanted—and vowed he’d never touch. Yet when Chloe reveals her secret wish, all those years of pent-up longing erupt with life-changing force. Now it’s Tanner’s turn to take a risk, and turn one magical Christmas night into the beginning of forever…

I’m enjoying the smaller stories this author has been adding to this series as it goes along. Sometimes I have issues with the .5 books, especially when an author uses it to give us more info on an already beloved couple and somehow ruins the things I loved about that couple. But Maisey Yates has been using the .5 part of this series to tell us new stories of a family that’s not involved with the winery and dude ranch that take up the bulk of the full number books in this series. It’s really been a lot of fun to get these short stories to give me my Gold Valley fix between the other books.
Since I have been reading all of these short stories, it was no surprise to me that Chloe and Tanner would get a story and a HEA. It didn’t play out the way I would have expected. Although I knew Chloe didn’t usually have an issue speaking her mind, the way she speaks up for herself with Tanner in this one shocked me. The girl has guts!
Of course, I also thought the big road block for this couple would be their relationship as step-siblings. While that is used as an excuse by both Tanner and Chloe in this story, that is not what the overall obstruction ends up being.
